Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In HIV-infected patients, enhanced PD-1 expression of T cells correlates with T cell depletion, as evidenced by reduced virus-specific proliferative capacity and decreased cytokine expression.Targeting PD-L1 drugs to block PD-1/PD-L1 signaling may promote the secretion of antiviral cytokines and achieve HIV clearance.The mechanism of action of ASC22 is to competitively block the binding of PD-1 molecules to PD-L1 through its antigen-binding region with a high affinity for hPD-L1, thereby stimulating an innate or adaptive immune response with sustained T-cell activation.This study was conducted to evaluate whether ASC22 combined with chidamide in HIV-infected patients with antiviral suppression could shrink the viral reservoir.
